The result meant that Chelsea effectively sealed third place in the English Premier League ahead of the final round of fixtures on Sunday.
The draw lifted Chelsea to 71 points, 19 behind leaders Manchester City and three ahead of London rivals Tottenham Hotspur in fourth, but Chelsea’s far superior goal difference means Spurs have no realistic chance of overtaking them.
While they will be delighted to seal third place, Chelsea will be disappointed not to win a game that saw them produce 27 shots but only the one goal as they dominated possession.
In contrast, Leicester scored with their only effort on target after seven minutes as Kasper Schmeichel sent a sweeping long ball to Timothy Castagne and his deflected pass fell into the path of James Maddison who curled a shot past Edouard Mendy.

The missile landed in water between the Korean peninsula and Japan,
bringing condemnation from Seoul and Tokyo.
The latest launch – the first since a New Year speech in which Leader
Kim Jong-un set out policy priorities for 2022 – was first reported by the
Japanese coast guard early on Wednesday, before being confirmed by
defence authorities in Seoul.
The UN prohibits North Korea from ballistic and nuclear weapons tests.
But Kim Jong-un has vowed to bolster the North’s defences. It tested a
variety of missiles last year amid stalled talks with the South and US.
In 2017, North Korea tested the Hwasong-15, a missile that peaked at an
estimated altitude of 4,500km, putting US military bases on the Pacific
island of Guam well within striking distance.
The launch comes days after Kim said that Pyongyang would continue
to strengthen its defence capabilities due to an increasingly unstable
military environment on the Korean peninsula – a stance Panda warned
could see 2022 littered with similar North Korean missiles.

September 3, 2021
WHO, in the report, titled “Global Status Report on the Public Health Response to Dementia’’, stated that only one-quarter of the world’s countries have national policies, strategies or support plans in place.
According to the report, European Region hosts half of all countries offering effective support for people living with dementia.
Yet, even in Europe, many plans are expiring or have already expired, indicating a need for renewed government commitments.
Dementia is caused by a variety of diseases and injuries that affect the brain, such as Alzheimer’s disease or stroke. It affects memory and other cognitive functions, as well as the ability to perform everyday tasks.
The disability associated with dementia is a key driver of costs related to the condition. In 2019, the global price tag was estimated at US$1.3 trillion – a number that is projected to rise to US$1.7 trillion by 2030 or US$2.8 trillion if care costs are included.
At the same time, the report explains that the number of people living with dementia is growing.

Mr Kurfi was reacting to a report by an online medium Wednesday which said that Mr Daura was flown to the UK aboard a private jet after developing a serious medical condition suspected to be Covid-19 related.
Speaking to Journalists Wednesday evening, Mr Kurfi said “the whole world saw Mallam Mamman Daura without any sign of illness on Tuesday when he attended the funeral prayer for late journalist, Wada Maida”.
He also said Mr Daura often travels for medical checks with his ling term doctors based in the UK.
“I was one of those who saw him off at the Airport and he called me when they landed in London this evening,” he said.
He described report of serious illness as “fake news”.
At 80 years it is natural that he will from time to time undertake medical checks.
He added that as a free citizen, Mamman Daura is free to seek for medical services or opinion anywhere.
“If he were sick and the sickness is Covid-19 do you think UK authorities will allow him to travel there at this time,” he asked.
Why he is being targeted
Mr Kurfi also said Mr Daura is being targeted by a section of the media for freely expressing his opinion regarding the 2023 election.
“What is wrong in advising that Nigerians should go for competence and not necessarily where one comes from in electing leaders?
“There are competent leaders in all the regions of the country and democracy has now developed to a situation whereby anyone being elected must be on the basis of what they have to offer and not where they come from.
He said some of the people “trying to bring down the government by advocating for a revolution where on the ballot during the last election but could not win their state, local government, ward or even polling unit, so they are now resorting to call for violence, can they be allowed to do that in any other country?” he said.

“PDP Leaders Are tax collectors” - Wike, PDP Reacts - Liberty TV/Radio - News - Voice For All! Vision For Alll!
Publisher (J.T)
June 24, 2020
The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has insisted that no member of its National Working Committee (NWC) sponsored any media publication to malign the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike.
PDP described such publications as handwork of external forces and its enemies who are bent on sowing seeds of discord within the party.
The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan also maintained that members of the party’s NWC are not tax collectors.
PDP was reacting to Wike’s decision to pull out of the reconciliation efforts in its Edo State Chapter.
Wike had accused some members of PDP’s NWC of being sycophants and tax collectors who will never tell the truth.
Addressing journalists in Port Harcourt, the governor had said, instead of the NWC to carry everybody along in Edo state, they resorted to using the media to blackmail him.
Wike’s claim was an offshoot of the refusal of some governorship aspirants in the party to step down for the Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, who recently joined them.
Obaseki had defected from the All Progressives Congress, APC, due to his differences with Adams Oshiomhole, suspended National Chairman of the party.
Reacting, Ologbondiyan, in a statement said the party won’t allow its enemies cause distraction within its fold, ahead of the Edo State governorship election.
The statement reads: “The NWC also wishes to place on record that none of its members has acted like a “tax collector” in whatever meaning the term represents, either in the process leading to the Edo primary election, or any other state.
“Our party holds Governor Wike and indeed all our PDP governors, who, of course, have been the pillars of our great party, with utmost respect and had always consulted them on all party affairs.
“PDP appreciates the efforts and sacrifices of our governors and will not allow enemies of our party, who are out to cause disunity in our fold by sponsoring baseless publications against our leaders, to have their way.”
